Dark, dangerous clouds cover the sky
A powerful storm unleashes its fury
The boy shaken to his core
Desperately seeks shelter
Running through the streets
Thunder roars, lightning cracks, the wind howls
Fear grips his body, terror in his eyes
Falls to the ground
Slowly opens his eyes, clutching the covers
Alone in his small room, his fortress
Walls of steel, a thousand pound door
Dim light soothes him, drifts back to sleep
Only a small peep hole to the outside world
Storm clouds rage outside, always dark
A magic suit and skin tight mask
Always protect him when he leaves the fortress
Now a young man, he loves his fortress
Cunning light dances in the space
Perfect hideaway his mind believes
The light of the fortress only deceives
Now a man, he glides through the streets
The magic suit and mask hide him from the world
He slips into the fortress
Light tantalizes, flickers, taunts him
A tornado roars overhead
The fortress is gone
Lying on the ground
Staring at the storm clouds above
Everything gone, even the magic suit
Shaking with fear
Through the dark clouds way in the distance
There is a tiny sliver of light
Pain so intense, please let me die
Struggle slowly to my feet
Glancing down, the mask!!
Slipping it on, slowly start to walk
Towards the tiny sliver of light
